From Hubski's Primer Page: Some people disagree with this, but so far it's been working.Another misconception is that following users creates an "echo chamber." In fact, we feel that communities centered around topics are much more likely to become echo chambers, as people of like minds gather in the same place. It's very rare that an atheist subscribes to a Catholic board or vise versa. By following users that are looking to post, share, and engage with thoughtful content, the diversity of content and perspectives tends to be greater.
